Disappointed
This is simply a great golf course that is poorly run. They jam too many tee times together, and they start people off on the back nine while people are making the turn. Pace of play is horrendous. Don't play in the afternoon. And the starter can use a little personality, and a little organization. The course is a great value, but with value comes trade-offs.
Hidden Gem
Really love this course. Always very well maintained greens and fairways in fantastic shape with a magnificent layout. Currently practice greens and range are closed but in normal times would be available. Love how the course turns into a links style holes 12-17 adds a nice challenge and layout. Would be nicer if they added a bar and lounge but otherwise very worth the $$$.
The staff seems like they wished it was closed
Nice course, good conditions, good pace...staff blows...rude, inhospitable, took the fun out of it... "Look fellas, we know that this virus has screwed things up, but i'd like to play a round of golf without having to get attitude over it."

A take of two nines
This was our first time playing at Acushnet and we really enjoyed it. In these days of walking only in Massachusetts because of our governor I can tell you it was pretty walkable. The front and back nines are VERY different with the first being typical New England golf with woods on both sides of every hole. From there the course completely changes as the back is wide open and the wind is the main element. The course was in very good condition with thick rough and very quick greens for this time of year. This is a real hidden gem in Massachusetts and if you’re putting together a Cape Cod/Plymouth golf trip maybe add this course to the list. The only drawback was the way they handled the cups for covid, the course had cup covers that were level with the ground so any put the went over them kept going.
Hello, Thank you so much for the great review. We are glad you had an incredible time, and we hope to see you again soon! Thanks for choosing Acushnet River Valley Golf Course.
Hard to find a real flaw in my book, unless you need a grand clubhouse experience
I have played a dozen courses in Scotland--Acushnet River Valley remains one of my favorites--great value at off-hour rates--well maintained--friendly place to join other golfers as a single
Great track solid conditions
This has become my go to course on the South Coast. The course is always in solid shape and is a very nice layout. It is walkable, pretty flat with a couple of longer walks between holes. Pace of play can get a little slow if you tee off after 10. Not much for facilities but that doesn’t bother me.
Black friday golf
course was in pretty good condition for end of november
I think that its time for them to build a club house and get out of the trailer also i had a coupon for free carts which they would not accept because they are in fall rates, but coupon good till 12/31/19 so did not like that.,but the golf was good.
Fantastic ARV!
This course never disappoints! I love the variety of holes. The course is always in fantastic shape, from nice flat lush tee boxes to carpet like fairways to perfect greens. I have nothing bad to say about this course. Played on a somewhat chilly November day and we saw very few golfers. Finished the round in 3:25, superb! A+ course that they take care of very nicely. It is one of my go to courses once the weather starts getting bad. Generous fairways if you like to grip it and rip it. Nicely paved cart paths too, no bumpy dirt/rocky paths on this course. Enjoy!!!
Course
Can’t believe this course is so nice this late in the year...greens ran beautiful....
Great Course for ALL Levels
I especially look forward to playing ACRV Golf Course whenever I get the chance to visit New Bedford. I REALLY enjoy the varied format ...front nine=hills & forest & back nine=basically links style. I am a senior golfer w/an approx. 14 handicap & generally find this course to fit well w/my capabilities. The course is usually in FINE condition when I visit in the Fall AND of course is especially colorful w/the seasonal colors of this time.
Always A Good Deal
Pay there all the time , fun for me ( I am a 13 ) to my son who is a 5. Woods on 1/2 and back 9 is a bit of a links setup . Great value , greens are usually in great shape , all around fun place
Good value - Always in great shape
The course and greens are usually in great shape. The value is good, but the course is a little remote.
Great course!
Great conditions and awesome layout! Different look from every tee box– makes you dig through the bag. Better know your numbers and strike it pure. The juxtaposition between front and back was cool. Front is a little tighter with tree line fairways, and the back is fairly open/more links. Overall, great course and worth the visit!
Play pace
Got to the third And immediately came to a dead halt . There was a couple in front of us . A foursome at the Teebox . And a foursome on the green . A minute later we had a couple behind us . And that’s the way it went for the next 15 holes . Never saw a ranger or anyone else looking at time of play or doing anything about it . I have played there a few times and it pretty much has been like that . It’s a shame because I love the course one of the best courses in the area .
Awesome condition
Immaculate...greens ran true...layout spectacular...
